[QUOTE="ScentofCedar, post: 40769, member: 3353"] Heh. I have been reading the strangest things down here! I don't know why that happened, but I haven't been reading much fiction lately at all. Before I go into what I HAVE been reading, I wanted to say that Clavell is a wonderful writer, and if any of us have not read him yet, do so. Anyway, I have read: The Artist's Way at Work and The Artist's Way ~ Excellent The Closing of the American Mind by Alan Bloom ~ Fascinating A World Lit Only by Fire ~ Manchester ~ Also fascinating. Did you know Martin Luther believed himself to be meeting, and vanquishing, the devil while in the bathroom? I am going to be reading The Poisonwood Bible again pretty soon here (I think that was Kingsolver's best). I have been looking for a copy of Goodnight, Moon. (I know! I just really want to have that book again! :)) I got a book on Art History and one on the history of Europe that I am going to be starting soon. And then, you know what? I am reading Shakespeare. All of it. Just so I know what it says. And I have developed a fascination for Leonardo Da Vinci. Not the book by Dan Brown, but the person. And the Renaissance. So, it has been quite a year, bookwise, at my house! Barbara [/QUOTE]
